"À quatre heures, il n'a toujours rien mangé pour le goûter."

Translation: At four o'clock, he still hasn't eaten anything for the afternoon snack.

[leeviticus]

this... is a terrible sentence in so many ways

[Geoff_Campbell]

at the very least it should be "... for an afternoon snack.", but it's still pretty bad.

[HarishAbbe3]

Toujours = always and Toujours is also still.......
Encore= still ,again....alors peut-on utiliser encore au lieu de toujours ici....
So can it be"" Il n'a rien encore mangé ................merci.

[JimCassels]

Shouldn't this be "quatorze heures" if we're talking about afternoon tea. "Quatre heures" would indicate early morning.

[Ymeagain]

I guess le goûter indicates the part of the day involved. [BTW, 4 p.m. would be seize heures, I think]

[KateMcCabe4]

In this sentence, DuoLingo uses "quatre" for four o'clock. In another sentence in this lesson, if you don't use "quatorze", it is marked incorrect. Inconsistent, as usual.

What ???????

[Elizabeth870279]

I do not understand what this sentence means.

[Martyn413385]

Is this also nonsense in French?

[SusanWashi1]

Wouldn't a more comfortable sentence be, "It is four o'clock in the afternoon, and he still hasn't eaten anything for his snack? Just wondering

[rangerrusty]

I thought on the audio that mange was manger and the translation would be: At four o'clock he always has nothing to eat for the afternoon snack. Evidently I was wrong. I guess jamais would replace toujours in that case.
